Nádraží Holešovice

For barrier-free transport of immobile persons, passengers with baby carriages and handicapped persons, a vertical lift is available, which connects the north vestibule level, next to the Czech Railways departures hall, with the metro platform. The vestibule has a barrier-free entrance.

The lift travels along a vertical shaft that is separate from the stairway, and entrances are equipped with automatic doors.

While operating the lift, it is necessary to follow operating instructions located at the top and bottom stops, and on the lift itself.

Important notice: The control button for calling or riding the lift must be kept pressed for the entire travel time of the platform, otherwise the platform will stop.
